Quite a lot of Gang shit goes down in London. There are posh tourist studenty areas that are usually pretty fine. But there are a lot of stabbings, muggings, car jacking, drug dealing, prostitution, robberies, kidnappings, even shootings sometimes & guns aren't readily available in England. There are areas in London with high rise flats & housing estates that most regular people wouldn't even dream of walking/driving into. In London there are very rich, posh, educated areas & then there are very poor, Chavy areas lots of kids expelled from school, drug dealing, gang activity areas.
IF you didn't know, Chav stands for Council Housed And Violent. There are loads of kids that get labelled Chavs because they dress like rude boi gangsters, listen to Rap & live in council houses. THEN there are the real kids that you probably could label as Gangsters. Not the sort of gangsters i think of like the Mafia kind of deal. Like Street Thug, Drug Dealing kinda Gangsters, that would fuck you up, take everything you have on you & leave you for dead kind of Chavs.
If you let things like that worry you though, you wont enjoy your time in England. London can be a really sweet place to visit loads of sweet shit to do aquariums, museums, the Dungeons are fucking awesome. I honestly think the Zoo is one of the Best in the UK. One thing i will warn you against is the London Eye. Wooo it looks cool, loads of tourists go on it & its something to say your did when you were in the UK. Fuck me is it boring, you pay a shit ton of money to spend 20 minutes in a bubble, sitting on the bench if you're lucky looking out over London. Booooooooring!! Have fun though, enjoy yourself, just don't be an easy target! Don't be one of these tourists that walks around with their bag open with all their camera equipment on show wandering around looking at maps & being a general dumbass.
